And new comes the Utile beat en the Armande te call this theory te question ; te raise a faint hope ngaln.in the brcests of these who have mourned the four men missing from the Northern Pacifies company. ... The beat brought In by the Atmande was picked up nt sea. Lndeublcdly it is one of the Northern Pacific's bouts. The name of the lest ship Is stenciled en the ears which were found In the beat, and en etlicr objects there. It was ut 0 o'clock this morning that the lookout en the Armande-, scanning the sea tlireush the snowstorm whicii liiKlied the Delaware Ca:cs and ad jacent coast. nw the dim outline et a bout's gunn'el bobbin? en the wave.

In the beat were found oers, a pulr of regulation cork life -preservers, stenciled like the ears, a water bucket with repe handle, a balling pannikin, nn oilskin coat with n nickel In the pocket, and an oilskin hat. The beat was net marred by the fire. The beat will be examined with minute care, in the hope that It mny give a clue te the fate of the four missing men. The theory Is that the four get uway in the beat, but were washed overboard during the storm. Anether is that the four men escape 1 In the beat were washed out of the ship lane in which the Northern Pa cific sank, and were picked up by a ship outbound for Southern seas, and net equipped with wireless. Captain Psce said he did net believe the beat had been occupied, but It is difficult te account for the fact that the beat get free from the burning ship.

ASSERTS I Jffil KILL SEE 1926 FAIR Head of Engineers' Club Warns Cost Will Be Creater Than in Fermer Years SUNDAY ISSUE CROPS UP What Philadelphia's Scsqui-Ccntcns nial Exposition may be, ns indicated by what has been accomplished nt etlar expositions, was discussed this after noon by William Peele Tarkcr, presi dent of the Engineers' Club, at a meet ing in the Mayer's office in City Hall, when there was further consideration of the selection of n site for the great fair of 1020. The Engineers' Club has an nounced itself ns in favdr of Falrmeunt Park ns the exposition site. Hy 102(1. Mr. Parker said. Phila delphia would have a jiopulatieii of net less than 2.000,000. lie thought that the average minimum dally attendance would be about 200,000, but believed that en some days 800,000 parsons would sec the exposition. Within ti night's ride of Philadelphia, he said, was mere than one -third of the popu lation of the United States, or 37,300, 000 people. He believed 40,000,000 people would see the Exposition In 1920 nnd thought that the fair should be continued about 200 days se as te give tills number op portunity te attend. This caused Mayer Moere te ask : "De you think that tbe Exposition should be kept open Sundays?" "The question Is n ilelicate one, and I de net wish te reply," Mr. Parker re plied. "The Sunday question must come, up sooner or later." said Mayer Moere, "and we might ns well have It out new." Ne further discussion of the question, however, took place. Mr. Parker said there should net be less than 300 ncres for the main group of buildings and that there should be net less than 000 acres for the entire fair. This, he snid. would prevent crowd ing, which was one of the unpleasant features of the Chicago World's Fair. "Chicago." he said, "spent $27,000. 000 in building its World's Fair.
